A women's strawweight title fight between Zhang Weili and Tatiana Suarez will serve as the co-main event at UFC 312, later this evening (Feb.8) at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia.
Weili (25-3) is one of the most dominant strawweight champions in promotional history. Apart from her back-to-back losses against former champion Rose Namajunas, 'Magnum' has been unstoppable in the UFC.
The 35-year-old from China boasts a well-rounded game. With wins over the likes of Joanna Jedrzejczyk, Carla Esparza, and Jessica Andrade among others, it seems like Weili is well on her way to the UFC Hall of Fame.
Suarez (10-0) is perhaps the most highly touted contender in the history of the division. Many believe the former world championship bronze medalist is the most decorated female wrestler to have ever graced MMA.
